What could be stronger and more insidious than chance? Perhaps, perhaps only a chain of accidents, and this is a dangerous thing. Here you are a combat swimmer, through blood and sweat you have almost achieved perfection, it’s an accident and you are in a wheelchair and all your usual life seems to have been erased with an eraser. If you want to die, don’t even try, the next one awaits you, voila, and you’re already in a secret bunker, a volunteer test subject, along with laboratory rats. It would seem, well, that’s enough, but no, a chain is a chain, put it on and carry it. And hello, New World Styx! Will Mikhail Voinov, with immobilized legs, nicknamed the Serpent, be able to break this chain and become the executioner messiah in this world, only Styx and perhaps Pythia from the Cape of Beacons knows this.
